Office of Executive Policy and Programs (OEPP)

The Office of Executive Policy and Programs administers several statutorily assigned programs to serve the residents of South Carolina. These programs provide a wide variety of essential services including assistance to abused and neglected children, children with emotional and behavioral issues, people with disabilities, veterans, small and minority-owned businesses, and those in need of help with home utility expenses.

Please note that effective July 1, 2017, by Act 96 of the 2017 Legislative Session, the General Assembly transferred the State Office of Victim Assistance (SOVA) and the Office of the Crime Victims’ Ombudsman to the Office of the Attorney General’s South Carolina Crime Victim Services Division.
